Morata is only happy with Spain. More precisely, with the family born with Luis de la Fuente as the father of everyone in this locker room. Because he doesn’t even feel complete playing on national territory, where he had to experience episodes that are difficult to explain. Spain fans have rarely been seen berating a national team player, as has happened with the captain on several occasions. The last one, in March at the stadium Santiago Bernabéu during the celebration of Spain-Brazil. But it also happened at the Metropolitano or La Cartuja.
For all this, Morata He has found his place in the world in the ecosystem that surrounds the Spanish team. Within the walls of Las Rozas Football City he feels happy. The attacker of Milan He may be better or worse emotionally, but with his teammates he is a different person. It’s in the only scenario where he feels good, where he only thinks about football and where he is able to smile.
Morata He is currently not experiencing his best emotional moment on a personal level. The separation and distance from his children affected him, but in Spain he found his refuge where everything was fine. Your little cave of happiness. Here he is the captain, the boss, but above all he is a happy boy who can enjoy what he does best, which is nothing other than playing ball.
When he hit rock bottom
On April 16, 2024, the Borussia Dortmund I went down Atletico Madrid of the quarter-finals of the Champions. Morata, who missed a face-off in the first half, was replaced at half-time by Simeone. What followed was a descent without brakes where he needed medical assistance to pass.
“I relied on people who had experienced the same thing, like Bojan. Three months before the European Championship, it seemed impossible to me. I wondered if I could play a game again, I didn’t know what was happening to me. It’s a time when what we love most is what we hate most. I was ashamed to be with my children and to go out. Every time I hung out with them, I always had an episode, sometimes not maliciously, with people about something that had happened in previous games. And finally, they didn’t want to go shopping either, which is what a normal father does with his children. There came a time when they said so many things to me in front of them that I was ashamed to be with them. “I was an easy joke, a joke to make the person next to you laugh,” he said recently in the Cope.
Morata He packed his bags and had a change of scenery. He went to Milan, where a new life began. Who knows if this will be his last adventure, but what he will surely do is seek the stability he needs to fully enjoy football.
